I'm flying these https://www.apcprop.com/product/bd5x3-7e-3-b4/ and these https://www.apcprop.com/product/bd5x4e-3-b4/ on my 6S Marmotte and couldn't be happier with them. I haven't tried those new GF's out, but I bet on those RSII's they perform.

This is actually my first 6s rig. I have some 6s batteries that should arrive shortly, I have been using 4s batteries in the meantime. I'm sure that those 2207's will rip hard once I get the new batteries.

See I was actually unlucky to get HV (1722 KV) Hyperlite's for almost half price because on my maiden voyage I discovered (fell outta the sky at ~ 2.5 minutes) that 4S is not possible for me (and that 5S is too anemic). I only get a 4-5 minute rip with the Session 4 onboard, but it's not much different without HD. When I got into 6S + HD I realized that doesn't leave a lot of room for MAH's. On my 7" Ti sure (and though those motors are the same KV I can run big 5S giving me some more flight time), but an HV 5" is a different monster.

It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
